Full description

This is a stained glass suncatcher made entirely by hand using the Tiffany copper foil technique. A bright red helicopter, rescue colours.

This is the just the 2nd helicopter I have made and is a brand new design. Someone asked if I made a helicopter.

I said not yet. I do now.

Really pleased with it. The body is made from two types / textures of very shiny bright red glass and the windows are clear, patterned glass. The rotor is black striped glass with a pretty blue bead in the centre and the wheels are little glass, metallic effect, beads.

I have hung it from strong nylon thread rather than my usual silver chain so it gives a better effect of flying.

It is 6 wide and 3.5 high.

I must point out that this is made of glass and is not a toy. It is reasonably strong but is designed to hang up, not to be played with.

This item is absolutely unique. I never make two pieces exactly the same, I always use slightly different colours and textures of glass. I can make it in other colours if you prefer. The first 2 photos are of the helicopter for sale here. The 3rd is of the other I made so you can see that though the same design they are slightly different.

A super father's Day present.
